I see my fellow conservatives are all excited by new polls showing Kamala Harris to be the least popular vice president "since records began", which was apparently in the Seventies, but which nevertheless makes her less popular than Dan Quayle, and possibly Spiro Agnew, since it's unclear how far back into the Seventies these records go. These polls are said to have enthused Republicans about their prospects for 2022 and 2024 - notwithstanding that, as is traditional, critical precincts such as Fulton County, Georgia will not discover how much they approve of Kamala until the early hours of Wednesday morning.

~Speaking of executive authority, HM The Queen, upon the advice of her Ministers in Brisbane, has appointed as the next Governor of Queensland the long-serving chief public health officer of that state, Dr Jeannette Young. "There is no one more deserving of the title 'Her Excellency'," says the Premier.

Indeed. Surely we should address all public health officials as Your Excellency.

~No nation has venerated its public health bureaucracy with more extravagant prostrations than the United Kingdom. Are they still holding their weekly "Clap for Carers" or whatever it's called? Is the preferred modification of the national anthem to "God Save Our NHS" still sung? The people clap for their carers, but do the carers care for their clappers?

Biden proverbially hid in his basement.

They stole the election.

Harris could be filmed eating a baby and they will still steal that election.

Dan Quayle didn't do anything bad...he had a few gaffes which were mild compared to Biden's but was hammered mercilessly by the liberal media.

Before Agnew, the worst Vice Presidents were probably Aaron Burr (who killed Alexander Hamilton while VP), Richard Mentor Johnson, and Schuyler Colfax (Grant's first VP).

Pretty certain Harris was put on the ticket to run for President just to get her face out there as planned as they knew the coup was moving along as expected. Biden would win and they needed a VP lapdog to carry on if needed.

I’m pretty sure that no one in Finland has the name “Kamala”.

Since Covid will make it necessary for all of us to “vote” by mail, they might as well post the results right now.

[Lisbon1940]

I’m going to believe my own lying eyes.

[Rurudyne]

Considering that Hamilton was eagerly willing to contradict what the Ratifying States had been told about the meaning of the Constitution before it was ratified, and therefore what they can be said to have actually agreed to, I think we dodged a bullet and maybe Burr should get a break.

[M-cubed]

Bingo!.......

and they needed 2 idiots that would be dumb enough to participate in a coup that they knew would be exposed over time......All the other potential candidates were afraid of being hung if it failed.....Hence..we ended up with the 2 dumbest democrats that could be found...One with dementia and one with her brain between her legs...It really does make sense if you think about it...

Kamala Harris to be the least popular vice president “since records began”.

Shock treatment for Biden Harris voters like they didn’t see that coming.

[Verginius Rufus]

I have mixed feelings about Hamilton. He did some very valuable things for the country (and Washington had a lot of faith in him) but also did some questionable things. He did thwart the Federalist plot to make Burr President in 1801 instead of Jefferson. He and Jefferson had been at loggerheads when both were in Washington’s cabinet but later Jefferson had a bust of Hamilton at Monticello (which Al Gore famously did not recognize).
